    PS3 v. X-Box 360: Which Is 'Net Ready?

    AFAIK, you can only surf the net on the PS3 (it has a built-in web browser). I've never seen that option on my 360. Both are LAN capable (connect to your PC). I can play my media library sitting on my PC on both my PS3 and 360. Playing games online is free with the PS3, and $50 per year on the...

    Recommend me some games for the Xbox 360...

    A little bit of each. Here are specifics for those that I know: Mass Effect: vastly improved controls (especially that one vehicle... whatever its name is) Gears of War: better controls, along with entirely new content (the only place to fight a signficant cool boss battle, for example)...

    Weather Generator?

    I haven't been able to find the one I used. It was entirely web-based, used the 1e WSG as the basis, did up to a month at a time, and was printable. (It did everything that Wisdom Penalty points out above [including adding special weather - tornadoes, heat waves, hurricanes, etc - when...

    Recommend me some games for the Xbox 360...

    While Mallus is wrong on virtually everything he says virtually everywhere in ENWorld (;)), he's almost always right in the video game forum. So - what Mallus said. :D I own Bioshock, Mass Effect, Fable II, and Fallout 3 for my 360 (others for my PS3), and they're all quite good (well, Fable II...

    ENWorld Edition Bias

    Yeah, that would suck if wankers showed up on the "D&D 4th Edition Rules" forum and thread-crapped.

    About the new EN World front page - I LOVE IT!

    No more marking which articles on WotC's site are subscription and which aren't?

    6 months later: impressions of 4e

    How do you determine if it's a reasonable challenge, as well as providing the proper amount of XP? (Keeping in mind that this is coming from a DM who finds that 3e's CR system works like a charm for him and his group.) I've never been impressed with the "2e school of monster design", for my uses.

    Weather Generator?

    The 1e Wilderness Survival Guide. Bar-none. I still use it to this very day. There was a generator online that actually generated the weather from the WSG for you... I don't know if it's still out there, but Google is your friend. I printed off a year for each terrain in each climate type, and...

    Would you pay $218 for a new set of RPG rules?

    Quite possibly, depending on content, quantity, and how close to perfection I consider it. I've easily spent that (and more!), for example, on my 3.xe ruleset.

    Love the Game vs. Hate the Greed?

    Irrelevant to the original question. And I'm a consumer, not a "business".

    Have You Purchased Any Additional 4e Supplements Beyond the First Three Core Books?

    None yet, but I'm considering picking up an adventure or two (Thunderdelve - is that the name - looks to have particularly interesting maps if the WotC site is any indication, and that's a nice change from the recent past). Quite the hilarious crusade, there - both before and after the fact.

    6 months later: impressions of 4e

    Very interesting post, and a fun read. But this: has me totally scratching my head. I recognize the individual words (they're in English), but nothing else... I simply do not understand the above. Does. Not. Compute.

    Love the Game vs. Hate the Greed?

    Everything I've ever desired? You mean, the perfect game? Uh... yes, I would buy it in an instant. (Is this a trick question?)

    Am I an unfair GM?

    My ruling would be: "Your spell fails (no line of effect). Suck it up. PS - you're incompetent." (Because that's just how we work in our group.) Your ruling was perfectly fair. Period. "Why?" "And now you're learned yet another one." By level 14 (after going from 4th to 14th), the...

    New Open Design: Halls of the Mountain King

    Heh. "Majority"? "Fair"? I see you are new to the ways of business. Darn that pesky "business" thing! All I know is that, contrary to Mr. Baur's statement: that's one big Epic Fail, as they say here on teh webz. What a pain in the ass. Quite simply - why can't I just purchase the product and...

    Poll of Polls

    You certainly do, Jack99. You certainly do. Oh, here we go again... Oh - and IBTL! (No. Off-topic/humor. Polls. Polls are serious business at ENWorld, donchaknow!) :D

    Any games to get excited about in 2009?

    Yeah, that's what I thought about the meager 360 exclusives after I tried 'em.

    Jan '09: What Are You Playing?

    Pretty good, from what I've played. I haven't had a lot of time with the single-player game, though, and probably won't for the foreseeable future (whattaya want? I'm still way back playing Zelda: Oracle of Ages (GBC), for pete's sake!) ;) Yes, you can do split-screen co-op (and split-screen...

    Let's read the entire run

    Still used to this day. Heck, if you had/have access to it, who didn't use it? Nice touch. My Nine Hells articles sit in my Planes of Law box to this very day. No, when it comes to Palladium, it really isn't. Prophetic and sad, though.
